There has been so much going on lately here in the U.S. There have been floods, fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, the anniversary of 9/11, droughts, etc..
This week instead of asking someone to share their thoughts on pausing life for a moment or sharing more of my own. I decided I needed to provide an opportunity for all of us to pause.
Please just take a moment to pray for the people affected by any or all of the events listed above. If you have something else you would rather pray or pause your thoughts on for a moment, please feel free to do so.
I am hoping that just taking moment to pause and to focus our thoughts on something or someone else today will not only help them, but help us today.

Thank you for the reminder. It is always hard for me to keep up with what is going on back home and it is always so heartbreaking that I can’t do more. Hopefully prayers can make it across oceans!

You read my mind. I have been lifting the families and communities caught in disaster up before the Lord. May He bring peace, comfort, strength and much needed resources to them.

It’s true we do need to pause for a moment and reflect on the things which we need to cherish.
